[PATCH 17/21] perf record: Support recording running/enabled time

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Feb 25 2015 - 16:48:33 EST


From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add an option to perf record to record running/enabled time for read
events, similar to what stat does.

This is useful to understand multiplexing problems.

Right now the report support is not great, but at least report -D
already supports it.

[ Fixed the Documentation entry to match the OPT_BOOLEAN one ]
